Overgeared

Chris saw the odds of this mission succeeding as over 90%.

There were four months remaining on the truce agreement with the empire.

The agreement between nations was protected by the system so the empire and Overgeared Kingdom were unable to attack each other. The Overgeared members were guarding the evil eyes village and the empire couldn’t attack wildly.

Even if the empire invaded the village, the Overgeared members just needed to guard the gates and they would be able to protect the evil eyes king until Grid arrived.

‘These villains from my past life!’

However, the empire took different actions than expected.

They indirectly invaded by using external forces.

Chris’ expression instantly darkened.

‘Those villainous empire bastards, they intend to thoroughly consume our strength in this life, sealing the cycle of reincarnation and ending it all here!’

Chris quickly swung Grid’s greatsword, the cross-shaped trajectory of the sword striking the upper body of the two assassins moving through the darkness and killing them.

The assassins with low defense were easily killed by Chris, who had the most powerful attack power.

‘Dammit, it is a mess.’

Chris jumped to the nearby roof of the mansion and shook as he watched the whole city. There were battles taking place all over the village and the assassins who appeared in pairs were powerful enough to dominate two elite military units.

‘They easily cope with two elite units containing 100 high level players...’

Was this truly rabble hired by the empire?

Chris raised the power of the Tyrant and flew forward.

The further he moved, the more his attack power increased.

“Viscount Chris!”

The expressions of the Overgeared soldiers still looked threatened despite capturing the assassins. Chris appeared like the raging wind and saved them from the assassins.

Chris ordered the unit leaders.

"Assemble your troops at the castle of the great evil eyes king who deals with dark flames and white ice and sees the truth of the world. It should never be breached, even if you must risk your soul being casted out of the circle of reincarnation or even destroyed.”

“Yes!”

Among the 10 meritorious retainers, Chris was one of the twin leaders along with Jishuka. It wasn’t a problem for him to operate the troops using his own judgment.

The soldiers replied vigorously and saved another unit as they marched in the same direction.

In the meantime, Chris moved along the roofs towards the village centre while killing assassins.

The heart of the village was a small library. It was a place where Lauel, Jishuka, Pon and Regas were guarding.

The reason why the top rankers were gathered there was because it was one of the most important bases in the village.

“I have come to keep the promise of our previous life.”

Chris broke through the assassins surrounding the library and stood by Lauel. Jishuka was covering him by firing arrows while Lauel looked like he had aged 10 years.

"As expected, the empire seems to covet the knowledge and information which was sealed deep within the library to keep the world safe.”

“Certainly...”

In other places, the assassins appeared in pairs while there were dozens of assassins here.

Chris faced more than 100 assassins and wondered,

“What the hell are these guys? Are they slicing through the dimension itself, appearing from the dimensional gap out of thin air without going through the door? Not even Faker who has unsealed the right arm of the God of Death can do that.”

“They are borrowing the power of the akashic records.”
